[SNIP] Hey all, I have the Lotus EFT backpack. http://www.patagonia.com/webapp/commerce/Pgonia/Product. jsp?merchant_rn=7385&cgrfnbr=285083&sku=L1250 (take out breaks before pasting) I had the pouch but didn't like it much. I've had the EFT for two years and love it. It lies flat and doesn't interfere at all with rolls of any sort, even with a high back deck. Just don't overstuff it. I usually keep a water pouch (a cheap Platypus Bigmouth) in the summer, or a thermos in the winter. I have thought about carrying my survival things in the pack, but as I've written here before I keep most of that stuff in a Naglene bottle in the cockpit. The EFT is pricey ($65 US), but I think it is worth it. I have an early Lotus Rio Grande that I got before they developed their specific sea kayaking vests and it really adds some functionality to it. The EFT will fit pretty much any PFD and while it looks a little big on the site, it is actually quite slim and lies flat when empty. -Patrick *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).
